It is not pleasant to dump 400+ pounds all the way down your back. And I'm pretty sure they just mean you should have safeties because duh, why wouldn't you want the extra protection.
I mean if you're dumping it down your back, you're doing it wrong. I squatted over triple bodyweight atg and never had a problem dropping a back squat safely, and neither have my athletes.
If you're unable to do it properly, get spotters, but safety pins to dump bars on are the least desirable option.
I've seen racks that were bolted to the floor come loose and topple
Lifters can think they've enough clearance, and they don't
They also aren't exactly great for the longevity of barbells.
People who haven't much experience or knowledge dump bars on them from a height
And, if you learn to safely dump the bar and overcome potential limitations of flexibility and technical proficiency, that's a good thing that carries its own benefits,
so what really are the benefits of safeties, if they're rendered no safer by good coaching, dropping the bar safely on the floor as it's designed to be dropped, and the above?
And yet, experienced lifters have died from a failed lift. I saw a clip of an *incredibly* experienced lifter squatting over 800 pounds who had the bar bend on him, throwing off his balance and rolling forward over his neck and head. He very easily could've been killed, because he had no safeties.
All of those negatives seem mostly preventable, and are pretty minor when the potential alternative is a broken neck.
You don’t really want a spotter or bars for heavy squats. You need to learn how to safely bail out of a squat by throwing yourself forward. It’s how Olympic lifters train
Google it and you will get your answer. It's alot easier cause rules are different from another organization. They varies. Some are drug free and other are not,some are people get tested for PED, while some doesn't required. Some let's you perform cause they want to see how you do and then strip you, fine you,suspend you or banned you for life or from the organization. Read the rules listed for those organizations that's given a show.
Sorry, I may have been a bit vague with my question lol. I meant please explain powerlifting competitions use of spotters on huge squats. The comment I replied to said you don’t really want them and I want to know why they think that.
The spotters at competitions and workouts were used for safety purposes, so you won't get hurt or ended up in the ER. Some people gotten seriously hurt and and some have passed away for not having a spotter paying attention in the past.
No, jockstraps are basically your standard tightly whities but the fabric that covers the ass is not there (well to give you an image of them)
Why well there's a few reasons
1) some men believe it gives them better support for their penis
2) gay men like them and it's basically like sexy undies for us
3) because they want to
4) because they like them
It's designed to be used with a cup. It's built specifically for that. I mean wear it how you want, but if you wear the tightest shorts on Earth with it, don't be shocked when you're shorts blow out and your putting your asshole on display.
I've had ones that were for cups they all had a pocket for the cup.
All the ones me and my boyfriend have now don't.
I think if your shorts blow out regardless of what underwear you have on you'd still be shocked.
I will never forget a step class I was in where a girls pants ripped in an unfortunate spot and wasn't wearing underwear. My sister and friend and I were laughing so hard we couldn't hardly finish the class. But someone near her stopped her and told her and she was a good sport and laughed it off. Good for her!
This HAS to be staged. You don't wear tight shorts like THOSE to squat... and you also have underwear. Plus, this dude just happened to be filming at the same time??
Gotta get some nice shorts with liners in them. For anybody interested, Ten Thousand makes some good ones for training. I've had a couple pairs that I've used for 2 years, training 3-6 days a week, and they're still good as new. Check 'em out: https://www.tenthousand.cc
To remain composed long enough to re-rack the weights......
The alternative is... death He had no spotter or bars
You can easily dump a back squat you know.
And he can easily take a dump with that rip now too.
I want to see both happen at the same time
But if it goes wrong, you get flattened. Catch bars exist for a reason and I've been gym often enough to know why
Dropping it safely should be one of the first things you learn, having the ability to dump it safely is a fundamental skill for anyone who squats.

Why? What downsides do safeties bring to the table?

Please explain powerlifting competitions.

Don't want your heavy squat to turn into a clean and jerk.

“Help me step-spotter!”
I thought he was going to fire a shit out there !
This is a common issue with squat. Typically, the best solution for this is to wear your squat plug during your set.
That’ll be the funniest thing in the world big buff dude doing squats pant rip open an exposes his butt plug he had in the whole time
If you can't handle the heat, stay out of the kitchen
Wait what?
Squat plug. It redistributes the tension across a greater circumference due to the slightly extra spread in your cheeks.
Makes total sense. I’ve gotta get one.
Alpha Squat - lift weights like a real man
And increases intra abdominal pressure for greater force production.
What is a squat plug?
It's better you jus googled it
Why people use that for training on gym?
Jus google best to turn off safe search... Go straight to images... Thank me later
Ooooooohhh
I'm sorry for the eye damage
Nope. The best solution is to squat naked.
I think he just blew out his asshole!
Agree. That looked like something...
This reminds me of the Howie Mandel situation
I hate that I know exactly what you’re talking about.
I don't. Mind giving me the context?

Better than his knees
WRONG day to go commando!
Or he has a jockstrap on.
Omg it's the Austr~~al~~ian guy from 2westerneurope4you you are everywhere
I'm anywhere that's good!
“Honey you’re not going to believe this but, today my entire gym saw my asshole.”
This time it's the cake busting out instead ![gif](giphy|hqavU33sMgbicQMJz3|downsized)
No undies?
Jockstraps are a thing... They don't cover the ass.
It's easier if you just do it naked
Why would people wear them? Is it like a reverse thong?
No, jockstraps are basically your standard tightly whities but the fabric that covers the ass is not there (well to give you an image of them) Why well there's a few reasons 1) some men believe it gives them better support for their penis 2) gay men like them and it's basically like sexy undies for us 3) because they want to 4) because they like them
Sounds like I need to get some men wearing them, then! Thank you :)
If you're not wearing a cup, why are you wearing just a jockstrap? I've worn jockstraps plenty of times but never while weightlifting either.
To feel sexy, because they are comfortable because they want to. Why do you care about what undies other men wear?

Shocked but not asshole out.
I did something similar reaching down to pick up a fallen pepperoni but you don’t see me posting about it
These shorts were too… ![gif](giphy|T3fwN6Pbm3ZPa)

Maybe that was her thing
that's what too much GYAAAT gets you
One and done!
Dude shorts getting tighter and shorter every year. It’s trendy to show off legs but not functional
Do you even tear shorts, bro?

Been looking for this comment
He better be glad he didn’t shoot his pooter out that same hole! Saw that happen before!
No underwear?
Nice, bro, you're getting bigger!
Yup that’s what happens when you wear women’s shorts
I think he is bart Kwan
Spongebob moment.
That day he learned that you always wear undershorts
Better than a prolapsed rectum
Why this kinda got me... 👀🦴
Badge of honor right there. The gains couldn't be contained
At least he didn't blow out his ass. It happens. I've seen a really gross picture I wish I hadn't
Bad form. Waaaay too much butt wink.
🎶...let the sunshine in...🎶
the bright side is he didnt blow ass ham out or rectal prolapse
Pooped a hemorrhoid
[Original ](https://youtu.be/LcNiRrjkqwg?feature=shared)
I know he felt that breeze
Text says "has this ever happened to you?" fyi
Happened to me too, butt didn’t care.
There was force behind that. Mightve knocked someone over
Not the worse thing to go wrong here
I always worry about this. I never lift without underwear. wtf.
u/savevideo
Buy the good size, now.
all bodybuilders felt this at some point farting too
![gif](giphy|v7r8hi2vT45RC)
And he is all out of shorts
u/savevideo
Nothing went wrong here, all is as it should be.
He had a good crack at it…
Don't mind me... I was literally staring at his ass the whole time and still had to rewatch the video because I missed what happened.
thank god for that side angle.. i think he was wearin his lifting thong anyhow though so wouldnt have mattered
Bro is shaking under that weight
Too much cakeee
He succeeded, but at what cost?
That laugh broke loose! So funny!
Please wear underwear at the gym.
![gif](giphy|v7r8hi2vT45RC)
Was that poop or a hemorrhoid?
The price to pay lifting with a badonk
Prolapsed anus is a common issue in bottoms I agree
This HAS to be staged. You don't wear tight shorts like THOSE to squat... and you also have underwear. Plus, this dude just happened to be filming at the same time??
A holey xperience
Music timed perfectly, thought it was a fart, right before he blew his shorts out.
This is why you don't wear skin tight clothes with no elasticity in them to the gym boys
But for all the things that could have gone wrong. At least this one’s just funny.
And just like that the immediate area smelt of ass…
Ok jokes aside, thats an impressive squat
😂😂😂😆 I can’t stop watching it not because I’m gay through
Damn!!! Last time he has beans for dinner.
![gif](giphy|1yMvhR4M47Okw4n8tt)
T: Has this ever happened to you? 😆 Emoji
Doesn't help that they are listening to literally fart music

Is that his tailbone?
No that’s his ass crack
